An example output of this command is given below with available base parons displayed
under the Flashable partitions installed in system. Only one base paron is
shown xilinx_u250_gen3x16_base_3.
Card [0000:65:00.0]
Card type: u250
Flash type: SPI
Flashable partition running on FPGA:
xilinx_u250_gen3x16_base_3,[ID=0x48810c9d17860ef5],[SC=4.6.6]
Flashable partitions installed in system:
xilinx_u250_gen3x16_base_3,[ID=0x48810c9d17860ef5],[SC=4.6.6]
Use the following command to list the available shell paron.
$ sudo /opt/xilinx/xrt/bin/xbmgmt partition --scan
An example output of this command is as follows with available shell paron displayed under
the Partitions installed in system. Only one paron is shown
xilinx_u250_gen3x16_xdma_shell_3_1.

Note: A base and shell are compable if the card plus customizaon and rst version digit in the paron
names match.
The card_bdf is displayed on the rst output line for either command in these examples is
0000:65:00.0.
Using the command opons from the previous example, the command for ashing the base is as
follows,
$ sudo /opt/xilinx/xrt/bin/xbmgmt flash --update --shell
xilinx_u250_gen3x16_base_3 --card 0000:65:00.0
and the command for programming the shell is as follows.
$ sudo /opt/xilinx/xrt/bin/xbmgmt partition --program --name
xilinx_u250_gen3x16_xdma_shell_3_1 --card 0000:65:00.0
